The Rights of Indigenous Peoples

Abstract

An estimated 370 million indigenous people live in more than half the countries of the world, often inhabiting vulnerable ecosystems rich in resources. European colonisation decimated indigenous populations and resulted in extensive forced dispossession of indigenous ancestral lands. Remaining indigenous territories are now being taken or transformed by governments and private investors seeking to extract or convert natural resources to supply growing global demand. Instances of coerced assimilation, conflict, removal and even genocide continue to occur.
